Want To Buy Or Trade: Halland, Kostal, Greenfield, Matsuda, Jang, Casimi

[Bryancap77]

Hey all! Long time lurker, but only as of last year did I start taking steel string exploration seriously. I am now hunting to experience more work by a few specific builders. I am not looking to outright sell the following pieces, im more interested in trades. +/- cash either way is fine. I am located in St. Louis, Missouri, USA
I also forgot to mention - I am AVIDLY interested in harp guitars. I recently obtained a Duane noble and an emerald synergy x7 and they've been astounding. So any harp options would be considered as well!

Im highly interested in builds featuring macassar ebony/malaysian blackwood b/s with either euro spruce or redwood tops
I have the following. Im not certain if its ok to post electrics, but I have a few im going to mention here as well as its all on the block.

I have plenty of photos of each of these, please pm for all questions. Its been ages since I used any of these forums (I was a heavy jemsite user once upon a time) so please be patient as I re acclimate haha

All pieces are kept in a climate controlled professional home studio. All pieces are in great condition, and most are cross posted in various places so I can easily provide links featuring all pertinent details.

this link hopefully works to showcase the above pieces, more pics available of course
edit: initial link didn't work, ill share another. Keep in mind, the only pieces available are those mentioned above though. the others are either keepers or ive since sold them.

I am blessed to own a Kostal OMC with German spruce top and koa back and sides. It’s an amazing instrument, the best in my collection.

thanks my friend. this forum is bad news for my gas, that's for sure. every day a new rabbit hole is discovered....

[Bryancap77]

bump - ive picked up a few pieces, now I am specifically looking for an OM, would prefer a Halland if possible above all. (Wenge, Malaysian Blackwood, AB, Macassar ebony, or braz all of interest)

the only thing keeping me from putting in my own build is impatience, but if i can’t find one secondhand soon i think im taking the personal build route
